"We're flying! We are really flying! Oh this is the bestest thing ever!" Ducky cried from Sunny's back. Of course this wasn't the first time Ducky had been flown through the air, but being kidnapped by Petrie's uncle didn't necessarily count as a treat.

Meanwhile, Glory was carrying Littlefoot, Tsunami carrying Cera, and Clay carrying Spike. Petrie was flying on his own most of the time, but he was having a hard time keeping up.

"You Dragonets of Destiny fly very fast." Panted Petrie, landing on Starflight for a break. Starflight had enough of a hard time flying without his sight, fortunately, he didn't weight much, and Petrie was little more than carrying an extra scroll.

"I won't look down, I won't look down." Cera muttered to herself, covering her eyes.

"Cera? Are you scared?" Littlefoot asked?

Cera looked up sharply. "I'm not scared!" For voice started to weaken. "I'm just being cautious, that's all."

Meanwhile, from Clay's back, Spike peaked over the edge, watching the mountains pass by below. Suddenly, Spike started to slip. He tried to regain himself, but it was too late. And with a cry of terror, Spike plummeted toward the mountains below.

"Oh no!" Cried Clay. "I lost him!"

Clay burst after Spike, narrowed his wings to speed his descent. Spike was nearing the top of a mountain peak. Clay had to catch him before he hit it.

Clay caught Spike in his talons the last moment, but the weight was too much and there wasn't enough time to slow their descent. Instead, Clay angled his wings so they were gliding along the slope of the mountain, just inches from a nasty collision.

But finally, they slowed enough for Clay to land. Panting, Clay took a moment to rest. The other Dragonet's landed beside him.

"Oh Spike!" Cried Ducky, running up to him. "That was too close."

Taking a moment to recover, Glory looked up. "We have to keep going if we want to reach this Great Valley before nightfall."

"Are you okay having another go?" Clay asked Spike?

Spike looked up from a mouthful of grass, seemingly unconcerned by his near fate.

"Wait," said Cera, stepping up. "Look what happened to Spike and you expect us to go again?"

"It is the only way to reach the Great Valley." Ducky said.

"Well, unless you want to walk forever over days and days." Tsunami replied.

The young Dinosaurs looked at each other.

"It wasn't that bad," replied Littlefoot. "We just have to be more careful next time."

"Wait a moment!" Sunny replied. She rushed to Starflight and extracted some rope from his pouch. "We can tie you up so you'll be safer."

The dinosaurs looked at eachother again, and one by one, they nodded.

So it was, when the Dragonets took off again, the dinosaurs were safely secured to their backs with rope.
